7. Turn dough onto floured surface a knead gently a few times. Then shape dough into a circle 10-12 inches round and 1 inch thick and cut into 8 sections like a pie to make 8 large scones, or divide dough in half and shape each piece into 2 smaller circles 1 inch think to make 16 small scones.

8. Place scones wedges onto a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes or until puffed up and golden.

Maple Cinnamon Frosting

1 cup cream cheese

4 tbsp. butter, softened

2 tbsp. maple syrup

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 cup icing sugar

Beat together ingredients together until light & fluffy. Frost scones and place back in warm over to let the frosting melt over scones. Then sprinkle with diced vanilla spiced walnuts. Deee-lish!

I've seen pumpkin scone recipes but the maple sugar glaze sounds incredible. I'd love to have you come over and link up at our Pumpkin Linky Party going on right now for the whole month. Hope you can make it. Linda

Frosting AND nuts! Girl you are killing me!! I've managed to hold myself to only 2 stops at Starbucks this week (both times I had a Salted Caramel Mocha- Mmmmm...) but you just reminded me that I haven't indulged in a Pumpkin Spice Latte yet this autumn. I wonder if I have time to run out during next recess....My kids love all things pumpkin - especially my youngest. This recipe would be perfect for breakfast on Sunday - I'll make a double batch - and hopefully have some leftover for lunches during the following week. Oh! Won't my children love me!(Thanks to you!!)

When I saw these I KNEW I had to make them. My daughters don't like cream cheese frosting though (SO wrong, I know), so I made a vanilla glaze. They were so delicious! The spices were just right and did not overpower the pumpkin and they were not too heavy. I found the dough to be too sticky, so I kneaded in extra flour until it was a bit easier to deal with, but it was a particularly warm, humid day today. Thank you for the wonderful recipe!

Scones and pumpkin...what a combination! After I add coffee and figure out how to include chocolate in my feast, life will be perfect. I found you on the Six Sister's site. I am hosting a Pumpkin Delights recipe series in a few weeks and I would love to include this. Please send me an email if you'd like more information.
